Do you think Luke Skywalker would have had a better attitude and personality if his mother raised him?
Yes I know that his mother died in childbirth, but if she hadn't, whether he was played by the same actor or someone else, would that have made a difference in how he turned out?
8 AnswersMovies1 decade agoDoes anyone remember the retro live action Disney movies?
For example, Now You See Him Now You Don't or the original Freaky Friday, among others. Why do they not make good movies like that anymore? The ones from back then were so well done and creative compared to what they produce today.
4 AnswersMovies1 decade agoSince licenses and classes are required for many other things in life, why is this not done with parenting?
There are a number of people who should be licensed before they are deemed capable of caring for any child, and even then some shouldn't be allowed to do so. Do you think something like this would decrease the number of negligent parents in society or would it even make any difference?

3 AnswersMythology & Folklore1 decade agoWhy do some people believe that tarot cards conjure evil spirits?
Have they ever used them to come to that conclusion? There is no way anything like that is possible.
3 AnswersMythology & Folklore1 decade agoWhat are your thoughts on Christian Witches?
Is there such a thing? I've always been told that there isn't because the beliefs conflict with each other.

7 AnswersMythology & Folklore1 decade agoWhy do some religions tell their followers to have as many kids as possible and "God will provide"?
Many times, the father is the only one who works because the mother is at home with 5+ kids. And they may not even have enough money for basic necessities for that many people, never mind any occasional splurges. But their church tells them it is God's will to live like that. What kind of God would truly endorse that?
16 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoI read a theory awhile back that said the Romans during Jesus' time actually wrote the NT?
Jesus in the Bible was really Julius Caesar, etc. But it was written the way it was to hide their agenda.
How likely is that really? Or is it just another tall tale?
2 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoAre the celebrity pastors, et al, that everyone complains about only found on cable programming?
Is that why a number of folks have no idea who they are because they don't watch them? Personally I've never heard of them before and many Christian acquaintances (including pastors) I have asked out of curiosity don't have a clue either.
2 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoAre Confirmation names a Catholic only practice?
I was confirmed into the Lutheran church as a kid and they never had confirmation names, nor had anyone ever heard of that. Is it strictly Catholic or do other denominations do that as well?

24 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhy do people make math more complicated than necessary, particularly at an elementary level?
Over aol.com they have a quiz to test your knowledge against that of a 5th grader. One of the math questions is to add fractions. However if you get the answer incorrect, they tell you how to solve the equation. But they go through much more work to get there than necessary.
The equation in question is 3/4 + 1/2 = x
Obviously you get a common denominator of 4 and then figure out the rest. But in the answer description, they don't recognize 4 as being a common denominator, even though 2 goes into it with no problem, since they say 8 is the correct number instead.
Is this why many kids have such difficulty with math in school? Becasue of how the curriculum is being presented?

9 AnswersMovies1 decade agoNew novel with Bigfoot as the killer?
On the morning radio show, they announced a new mystery novel that is being released that has Bigfoot as the killer. But they didn't bother to mention the title or author. Would something like this be believeable or not?
